Anyone know a Toyota mechanic in the Pinehurst/Southern Pines area? Or even Fayetteville? That can handle a timing belt and WP on a friends Tacoma?

Thanks
 
@krzyabncanuck is your shop still going?

He's the only one I'm aware of in that region.
 
No, his shop is closed. He's living his dream in Arizona.
 
@rowtide is in the area. At the toy dealership I believe. Maybe she has a recommendation or could sweet talk the GM into an ONSC hookup :D ?
 
I use Midstate Toyota in Asheboro. Great guys and use all Toyota parts. My friend had his timing belt at Pinehurst Toyota and they used cheap clamps, he made them replace them with constant pressure clamps like Toyota uses....

Since I am still in the midst of my rebuild (although she is now "trail-ready"!!) I heard a "rotating clanking sound" coming from somewhere in the center diff area. Not wanting something to later grenade, I took it to them to evaluate and then plan to repair (them, not me). I demonstrated the noise to the repair guy....I was getting a SRS light also and asked them to plug it in and let me know what it was.

At pick-up, I was told "you have a good bit of rust underneath so something is probably loose"...$90, and you have an issue with your SRS...another $90.

I know they are "stealerships", but that was simply ridiculous.
